Well I just finished watching Funny Games and I have to say, overall it was a very entertaining, yet disturbing film.
There were times when I felt Tim Roth's character knew more then he was letting on, but alas I was wrong in that aspect.
As for "that" scene, I watched the film in anticipation of some film altering scene, but I will say that I was NOT expecting that.
While at first I thought it detracted from the film, the conversation at the end on the boat does seem to tie into what happened in that scene.
Its not a movie I would recommend to just anybody, but someone with an appreciation for art. The averago joe looking for a no-brainer home invasion, "scary" movie will be sorely disappointed with this film, however someone with a more open mind should find it entertaining.
